Wordpress Stat Counter

Statcounter and Stuff

I’m doing some research for a post following up on some discussions on Pharyngula (I’ll give the links later) and Red State Rabble when I came across this news item:

State Representative Cynthia Davis of Missouri prefiled two bills for the next session of the Legislature that she said “reflect what people want.” One would remove the state’s requirement that all forms of contraception and their potential health effects be taught in schools, leaving the focus on abstinence. Another would require publishers that sell biology textbooks to Missouri to include at least one chapter with alternative theories to evolution.

“These are common-sense, grass-roots ideas from the people I represent, and I’d be very surprised if a majority of legislators didn’t feel they were the right solutions to these problems,” Ms. Davis said.

“It’s like when the hijackers took over those four planes on Sept. 11 and took people to a place where they didn’t want to go,” she added. “I think a lot of people feel that liberals have taken our country somewhere we don’t want to go. I think a lot more people realize this is our country and we’re going to take it back.”

This may be old news to some but it is new to me (Actually, I know about the two bills she filed concerning evolution and sex education). Apparently liberals are like mass murdering terrorists!

Here is her contact info if you feel like dropping her a line:MO House of Representatives Home Rep. Cynthia DavisAddress: 201 West Capitol Avenue Address: 1008 Highway KRoom 130DCJefferson City MO 65101 O’Fallon MO 63366

Oh Lord she’s on Juno – I need to find another internet provider! Also, I must say I’m glad I don’t live in St. Charles (you poor, poor people-although I must say that’s what you get for fleeing the city)!

It’s like a hijacking!!! WTF. That is outrageous. Thanks for posting it. I hope she can be de-railed. I think I’ll email her. I’m not from Missouri, but I am one of those liberals she so maliciously maligns.

"You may not be willing to admit that you resemble an ape; if your thousandth ancestor is more like an ape than you are, you may, if you wish, call it a coincidence. But if that thousandth ancestor's forebears become progressively more simian as you trace back the geneological lines, you will have to admit that somewhere in your family tree there squats an ape."

"But I had gradually come, by this time, to see that the Old Testament from its manifestly false history of the world, with the Tower of Babel, the rainbow at sign, etc., etc., and from its attributing to God the feelings of a revengeful tyrant, was no more to be trusted than the sacred books of the Hindoos, or the beliefs of any barbarian."
